The oatmeal experiment was interesting. Oatmeal, Kashi, and some blueberries made for a very tart but filling breakfast. I used too many blueberries but I certainly ate more than I usually get when it’s just blueberries. Those things are a superfood and I need more of them. Also this past week, I tried 2 new …

I think lack of sleep makes me ugly. I really do. Purple eyes, dehydrated skin, and butt ass tired. I didn’t get to bed until about 1. I had to get up around 6 but snoozed until 6:30. I didn’t have time to run, but I did manage a fabulous breakfast. However, the rest of …
It was a royal pain in the ass day so I’ll speed right by it. Breakfast-an apple at 4:30 Snack-omelette from the diner. eggwhites and mushrooms Lunch-chicken salad on whole wheat, water Snack- peanuts Dinner- Collards wilted on garlic and wine with added smoked ham and white beans.
Fasting BS- 119 So, I made 2 bowls of oatmeal, the steel cut kind, and popped one in the microwave this morning. I added a little milk to it and some cinnomon. The consistency was still just too much for me to stomach. I like the chewier texture of the steel cut, but it wan’t …
This is going to be short for now. fast B.S 108—that’s more like it. breakfast-2 egg+1 white fritatta with bella mushrooms, green onions, Parmesan. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 3 hour nap and 2 excedrin migraine later… I began drinking the first metric ton of water and started on some oatmeal to save for a couple of mornings and …
Today was busy with visiting family (and being at the mercy of another cook) and watching games. I only got a small 2 mile run in, so that’s the boo hiss of the day. I was hoping for more miles and more weights. Life gets in the way a lot, it seems. Fasting B.S-129–whywhywhy? Breakfast-1 …
Usually, I’m up and at school early on Fridays because I don’t have to get all dressed up. I didn’t sleep as good either, more sinus crap and dreamed my father killed my newborn. I’m sure there are some deep-meanings behind that but my head hurts too much to think about it. I’ll save it …
I woke up from a weird terrible dream. Since I was already in the beginning stages of a sinus infection, crying only added to the exploding pressure in my head. I got up around 6 and decided to try to run a little. It’s hard to believe I used the treadmill as often as I …
The doctor called about the results again. I went by to see the nurse and get more info. He is more convinced now I’m not Type II. My other levels are great–cholesterol, triglycerides, thyroid is much better. He thinks I’m a newer form called Latent Autoimmue Diabetes in Adults (LADA) or slow onset Type 1. In …
This isn’t exactly running related, but in a way it is. Eating takes on a whole new game with diabetes. Eating what I want and eating what I need is so very often not the same thing. And I get tired of the same foods. I pour over cookbooks each weekend looking for something diffrerent …
This mornin’s run was effortless. Slow, but no pain. It felt like it should. It was chilly outside and if I had light, I would have been out there in it. But watching news while on the TM wasn’t so bad after all. I’m still carrying some extra weight so it’s no surprise that my …
It seems running is one of those things I may have to just love to do but can’t do. RR-2 miles. slow. painful. fasting B.S-190. maybe due to fever Breafast-nothing lunch-cafeteria peas, broccoli. snack-apple dinner-grilled fish.
